Billy Wells - Long Gone Man 2 Lyrics

You still remember someone you knew from long ago
You said a lot about him, I didn't need to know
Standing tall as a mountain, he was a legend in his time
He held you tight one lonely night and he took you for a ride
He's a long gone man
You loved one lonely night
A shadow on the wind
When the stars were shining bright
He's a long gone man
Who never meant to stay
And now he's just a mem'ry
Who stole your heart away
Nothing seems to matter, but the way he turned you on
He talked about forever, by morning he was gone
Can't you see you were nothin' but another one night stand
All he left was loneliness and his footprints in the sand
He's a long gone man
You loved one lonely night
A shadow on the wind
When the stars were shining bright
He's a long gone man
Who never meant to stay
And now he's just a mem'ry
Who stole your heart away
Stand by me, cause I'm the one who's gonna stand by you
Can't you see there's no one else who loves you like I do
I can't live without you, but I just can't live with him
Picking up the pieces of a life that could have been
Living in his shadow is more than I can stand
I love you, but what can I do when your heart is in his hands
He's a long gone man
You loved one lonely night
A shadow on the wind
When the stars were shining bright
He's a long gone man
Who never meant to stay
And now he's just a mem'ry
Who stole your heart away
